Have found the following on IGI
Christening
Sarah Lidgett / December 12, 1819 / Owersby, Lincs
Father: William Lidgett / Mother: Mary (no surname)
It's a possibility that Sarah is the Lidgett female that you are searching for, but there are quite a few other William/Mary Lidgett's in the Lincoln area. I don't have access to any Lincs Records, but it is worth having a further look.
I don't know how or why the SYKES name comes into the equation. I still feel that James Sykes is probably your James Curtis. At the moment I cannot explain why.

Hello Geoff-E. Do you think we are making 'headway' on this family? It sort of looks to me as though the contributors are getting closer to the original request for help.

Thank you for your efforts everybody, this is certainly proving a hard nut to crack.

That was 1861 of course. 
It makes more sense than anything so far probably. It's close to Grimsby anyway.

I have received this updated info from NZ. I have no idea if it will help. It is understood that James Curtis went to NZ in 1882. Perhaps that is a point to work back from. I don't have access to passenger lists anywhere that might help.
Anyway, this is the latest I can offer you;
"James Curtis married Mary Ann Brewster Clark 2 Apr1865 St James Great Grimsby Lincoln Eng.
George Curtis father John Brewster father
As Mary Anns mother was Henrietta Clark she married Henry Moody after Mary was born so she would of only known Henry as her father. So this sounds correct. James and Marys first child was born 1868 but there could have been one that died if they had children straight away".

Sorry I hadn't noticed your James COURTAS in 1851 ... it does suggest a link with Claxby ... but we need to find something to link at least two of these names SYKES/LIDGETT/CURTIS or we are just left with loose ends,

I tried to follow John Lidgett back. I think this is him and Mary (indexed as Benj) in 1851;
HO107/2114/334/12
Interestingly there is a Sarah CURTIS, 17 in household above. Is this Sarah SYKES aged 7 in 1841 census?
